First of all, I'd like to say that this card is a beast, considering it's now 2/3 generations old. It can run every single player at full quality, and multiplayer around medium. The only problem I've had is with MSAA, but that's just the slightly limited VRAM coming into play. Even ran the Crysis 3 Beta at low/medium (still beautiful) quite smoothly.
Now to my problem. I've been getting lots of crashes with my rig posted below, sometimes it'll survive the night perfectly, sometimes crashes every five minutes, and sometimes I can't even get past the login screen. If there's sound coming through, I get a sort of buzzing, digital noise. I know it's not temperature, I never pass 60, and power shouldn't be an issue because it ran just fine on my old Corsair 650TX. Even so, I turned off all power limiters in BIOS and still had problems.
I've troubleshot every component, and the only fix was plopping in a 10 year old ATI card that Win7 driver doesn't even support. So I've narrowed it down to being only the video card, and I've been confirmed an RMA from EVGA, but I'd rather not lose my pc for 2 weeks. So if there's another fix, I'd be eternally grateful.
